TOTALLY. OUT OF DATE!<br /><br />1.) I do not have long hair anymore.<br />2.) I don't wear glasses... those are fake... yes, I am cool {not}<br />3.) Davin grew 2.5 years older and about 5 gazillion inches. (I like hyperbole, can ya tell?)<br />4.) Jonathan still looks the same. He's had the same hair cut since 7th grade. (Hyperbole? Nope, thats the truth.)<br />5.) We have another kid! His name is Levi.<br /><br />Jonathan always laughs because I am always changing this thing. I have switch the name of this blog 70 hundred times (hyperbole). I want to change it again (suggestions?) I am never satisfied with the layout. I want it to look all legit and professional, but seriously? I am not professional and not legit either. But I digress.<br /><br />Bare with me, faithful followers... I am working it out. But in all honesty, I have lots of itty bitty diapers to change and pb&amp;j to make, and oh yea... I have to remember to eat lunch and breathe and sleep and shower and laundry (a joke, because that never gets done) and a hubby to spend time with and and and and and and..... a whole lot of really good stuff God gave me.<br /><br />I am sure you won't mind, right?<br /><br />You are so great. Take me as I am. GRACE! You are <i>so </i>Christian ;)Misha Segerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15453405656872970118noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8567350051483202641.post-41519412606282570502013-02-13T19:20:00.000-06:002013-02-13T19:20:02.016-06:00Hello. My name is Misha. Remember me?Yeah... hi. I feel sheepish showing my face (?) around here after such a long absence. And I should, because I just spell checked the word absence. Come <i>on</i> now, has it <i>really</i>&nbsp;been that long since I have typed a simple sentence??<br /><br />... I guess you are right.<br /><br />With the whirlwind of change happening these past few months, I am surprised I remember to put on deodorant.<br /><br />{{<i>sniff</i>}}<br /><br />whoops...<br /><br />I have two kids now and honestly, its been great and crazy! I feel silly even saying that because I <b>do</b>&nbsp;realize that SO many moms have more than two kids and two kids probably sounds pretty easy. To each his own. I like it. My little one won't be a newborn forever and this whirlwind will settle. One day I'll forget what it felt like to be moving from one need to the next and I will miss it. For now, I think these little posts are therapeutic for me, reminding me whats important and having fun will doing so and possibly helping me release some creativity... even if I always spell grammar with an "er" first, before being corrected and compose crappy paragraphs and incorporate inappropriate uses of punctuation. TO EACH HIS OWN! I ain't no writing pharisee. I'm probably slightly rebellious and <i>that&nbsp;</i>might have to do with my squeaking through high school english unnoticed. How did I do that? Maybe I should hire an editor?<br /><br />Oh well. To say the least, I think I am back to my dusty ol' blog. She's outta shape and we're gonna try and get back to working out ;) I missed you all! Its good to be back.Misha Segerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15453405656872970118noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8567350051483202641.post-63523748234548780312011-09-23T14:31:00.000-05:002011-09-23T14:32:58.401-05:00In sickness and in health..<iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/f6pX1phIqug" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="400" width="515"></iframe>Misha Segerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15453405656872970118noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8567350051483202641.post-80406608760773724632011-09-12T22:07:00.001-05:002011-09-12T22:07:51.606-05:00Humiliation"Let me never forget that the heinousness of sin lies not so much in the nature of the sin committed, as in the greatness of the person sinned against."<br /><br />Excerpt from The Valley of Vision: A Collection of Puritan Prayers & Devotions. <br /><br />P.

So let me learn that the cross precedes the crown, to be low is to be high, that the valley’s where You make me more like Christ.<br /><br />In the daytime there are stars in the heavens but they only shine at night and the deeper that I go into darkness the more I see their radiant light. So let me learn that my losses are my gain, to be broken is to heal, that the valley’s where Your power is revealed.<br /><br />Let me find Your grace in the valley. Let me find Your life in my death. Let me find Your joy in my sorrow, Your wealth in my need. That You’re near with every breath in the valley<span style="font-style: italic;">.</span>"<br />----<br /><br />What I love about this song is the truth it brings to the reality of our trails. To go through a trail is to find yourself in the "valley of <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">vision</span></span>" - that the beauty of Christ is brighter and higher and bigger when you are so low. How often do we consider our trials actual mercies from God for us to receive his grace, his life, and his wealth in our time of need. The only supply that matters, that lasts, are his... that our losses are gain: <span style="font-weight: bold;">Gaining Christ</span>.<br /><br />My favorite verse says, "<span style="font-style: italic;">In the daytime there are stars in the heavens but they only shine at night and the deeper that I go into darkness the more I see their radiant light." </span> I can lose sight of God's radiant light, his goodness and glory and all-sufficiency in the midst of bright shiny days... yet as I go deep into the darkness of life's trails, how brightly he shines before me! The darker the night the brighter the star.<br /><br />Please listen and be encouraged in the midst of your test.<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"></span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">"I lift up my eyes to the hills.</span><span style="font-style: italic;"> From where does my help come?</span><span style="font-style: italic;"> My help comes from the LORD,</span><span style="font-style: italic;"> who made heaven and earth.</span>" <span style="font-style: italic;">Psalm 121:1-2</span><br /><br /><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/9BPaMhGNRkQ" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="545" width="620"></iframe>Misha Segerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15453405656872970118noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8567350051483202641.post-47903694885277104202011-09-08T20:51:00.001-05:002011-09-08T20:51:30.180-05:00SomethingI thought that tonight was the night that I needed to at least post something...<br /><br />So there; something!<br /><br />Just kidding, that was lame. What a lame reentry into the blogging world. You would think after 2 months I would have had something better then that. Oh well. I feel kinda special that I have a few faithful followers and therefore feel the freedom to say whatever I want.... after all, if you stuck around this long - after a 2 month sabbatical- I think that you will still love me and my lame-o jokes. <br /><br />I sincerely do hope to keep up with all the things I want to record here from now on. Now that I have my trusty iPad I think the opportunities to type away will be much frequent, give that our desktop is down in the basement office (which is under construction- pics to come). Honestly, I feel like a little mole down in the basement office. So I plan to blog on the deck in the fresh air! <br /><br />I want to update on home improvement projects, but there ain't NONE yet! Or about a total body makeover from an intense exercise program, but that DEFINITELY ain't happening. So until then you will have words. But as for now it is movie night and my popcorn is getting cold :)Misha Segerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15453405656872970118noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8567350051483202641.post-64888735692899003952011-06-16T12:58:00.003-05:002011-06-16T14:00:44.775-05:00SocialI'm alive.<br /><br />Barely.<br /><br />We got moved into the new house. I met 4 neighbors. Linda, Jan, Dave, and Marvin. Marvin mowed our lawn. He came flyin' up our drive way on his gigantic 'titanic' of a lawn mower and said ever so nonchalantly, "Say, why don't I finish up and then come on over an' mow your lawn."<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Ummm?? YES PLEASE!!<br /><br /></span>That was so nice... maybe he did it because he saw me <span style="font-style: italic;">literally</span> washing the entire bottom half of our house (on the outside), (it was dirty-ish), (the gutters are full of dirt and are hanging on a slope), (we'll get to that later..) and he felt sorry for me OR, based on my obversvation of Marvin's yard, he likes his grass lookin' spiffy and having a neighbor with wild grass to your knees ain't so good for the neighborhood ;) Either way, we got a free cut a la Marvin. He even collected and bagged up our grass and stacked it all neatly for the garbage man... he said that clumps of grass in the yard looks "trashy" - and boy would we have had clumps! Marvin had to unload his (huge) grass collecting bags after circling the backyard ONCE and our back yard is not big!<br /><br />Thanks, Marv!<br /><br />... can I call you Marv?<br /><br />So, we have officially met 4 more neighbors than we have ever met at any of our other homes.<br /><br />We are so social.Misha Segerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15453405656872970118noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8567350051483202641.post-68680418472251048212011-05-19T06:00:00.001-05:002011-05-19T15:07:59.163-05:00sporadicSporadic. You know what... I originally spelled it "sporatic" - just goes to show you I am a true English <span style="color: rgb(153, 0, 0);">failure<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">! But that's okay because I have people who love me... and you still read my blog, so its all good. Although I am sure I lost some of you out there since I have been so sporadic in my postings. I strongly dislike when I have such long writing strikes, but you know what... I have been busy! So here are some updates on my life (just pretend that you care for a moment):<br /><br /></span></span><ul><li>We sent in the preliminary application to Bethany Christian Services to apply as adopting parents! Can't.Even.Believe.I.Just.Typed.That. YAY! Still haven't heard back... waiting.. waiting.. waiting.. maybe they think we are weird?<br /></li><li>Because we just started the very <span style="font-style: italic;">very</span> beginning of the adoption process, I am now convinced every other second that I could in fact be pregnant. Even though I am absolutely <span style="font-style: italic;">not</span> pregnant... nor are there any signs pointing to that possiblity. So I end this bullet point assuring you (and myself) No. I am indeed NOT pregnant... But I <span style="font-style: italic;">am</span> pregnant by adoption :)</li><li>My friend Katie and I have officially started our photography business <span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 0);">Wild Olive Photography</span> - I can't even type enough words to explain how FREAKING excited I am about this.<span style="font-style: italic;"> I - &lt;3 - Photography</span>, and it is the first thing I have ever started and haven't given up on. This is huge, my friend. HUGE. My reason for the success: because it is 100% for adoption (as in <span style="font-style: italic;">all </span>profits go toward our adoption funds - Katie and her family are adopting too!)... so God is literally making it happen. Snapping the shots, if you will, and bringing in clients. I think I have also <span style="font-weight: bold;">finally </span>found my niche and passion. My hobby. I am so grateful all around. Once I get our blog pretty and complete I shall post a link ;) </li><li>WE BOUGHT A HOUSE! So much to talk about on this subject... but I will need to wait for another post on this 1.) because I have a sink full of dishes that needed to be done 20 minutes ago and 2.) I want to take pictures so I can show you the refrigerator ... its from the 80's ;) .... I sense many "before &amp; after" posts on the horizon! We close June 1st. The day before my birthday. Happy Birthday to me.<br /></li><li>This week Jonathan and I celebrated 3 years of marriage! We have done a lot in 3 years! Bought a house, started down the road of adoption, had a baby, moved to a new town, graduated college, laughed a lot, and ate more Portillo's cheese fries and chili dogs than most people do in a lifetime. I love him.<br /></li></ul>Okay, I am done for now. It is cold in my house and my fingers are frozen and stiff... makes for many typos. Its all my fingers fault. Okay, that is a lie.Misha Segerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15453405656872970118noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8567350051483202641.post-4978418539090923762011-05-17T14:35:00.003-05:002011-05-17T14:50:50.195-05:00GraceWords that speak to the sinful perfectionism I chance... and inevitably fail to achieve.

You better believe I will. I have been known to enjoy recipes that include abstract ingredients such as: Apple Dumplings that involves 8oz of Mt Dew, Pot Roast that involves 12oz of Coke, Spicy Shredded Pork that involves Dr Pepper... Okay, is it just me or do I only like to cook with soda pop?<br /><br />Anyway. This chicken involves marshmallows and therefore I obligated to try it.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.familymaking.com/2011/02/whats-for-dinner.html">Click here </a>to investigate this scrumptious looking chicken {and marshmallows!}<br /><br /><br />*side note: I actually attempted to spell &amp; grammar check this post and noticed that every time I typed "involves" I wrote "involve".... what is wrong with me!?Misha Segerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15453405656872970118noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8567350051483202641.post-14356502351583026902011-04-13T10:17:00.005-05:002011-04-19T16:09:58.550-05:00Sow GraceI was snooping around in Hannah's bag of books that she brought back from the <a href="http://www.thegospelcoalition.org/">Gospel Coalition</a> last night and came across a book entitled,<a href="http://www.crossway.org/books/note-to-self-tpb/"><span style="font-style: italic;"> Note to Self: The Discipline of Preaching to Yourself</span></a> by <a href="http://www.joethorn.net/">Joe Thorn</a>. Its a <a href="http://theresurgence.com/pages/books">RE:LIT</a> book. AND I just read that he is the pastor of Redeemer Fellowship in St. Charles, IL!! Hey! that is close to us!<br /><br />When I read the title I was like, "<span style="font-style: italic;">humm, I need this.</span>" I cracked it open to the a chapter called <span style="font-style: italic;">Sow Grace</span> ... and let me tell ya, it was convicting and true. I hope this is decent blogger edict because I am about to quote it. I am assuming it is allowed to quote an author, as long as I give due credit... and lets be real here, I could never come up with stuff like this myself. So lets give a HUGE thanks to <a href="http://www.joethorn.net/">Joe Thorn</a> for writing this book and helping guide us in the practice of preaching to ourselves! Here is an excerpt from his book <span style="font-style: italic;">Note To Self.</span><br /><br /><blockquote>Dear Self,<br />You should be sowing more grace. You should be more generous with your time, money and gifts. The people around you, especially those who are unfriendly or even cross, need grace. Consider how often you give what you think is justice- that is, what you think people deserve. You tip less for bad service, ignore people who have snubbed you, or sigh and roll your eyes at the person taking up to much room at the coffee house. You may not be doing evil, but you are not doing good.<br /> Ask yourself, "Am I a person of grace, or a person of karma?" Do people see in me a principle of 'you get what you deserve,' or 'what goes around comes around'?" If this is true of you, then people won't see Christ in you but will get a good does of false religion. Such principles are already commonly understood in our culture, but the gospel principle of giving the good another does not deserve- that is different.<br /> God calls you to love justice and demonstrate mercy. Jesus commanded his followers to live generously and offer grace to their enemies. Why are you offering less to those around you- to those God has sent you to as his ambassador? Perhaps because it is easier to aim at what you call justice? But such feelings are self-righteous, and acting as judge only feeds your ego. You were not made for this; you were made for the glory of God and the good of others.<br /> What you need to consider therefore is that God commands you to live generously because he is gracious. He commands you to be patient and merciful because such things find their beginning in him. And you not only know him, but you know his grace. God has extended mercy to you, blessing and forgiving you when you deserved much less. As a child of God, represent you Father well by showing grace. Sow it.<br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;">{</span>page 75-76, <a href="http://www.crossway.org/books/note-to-self-tpb/">Note to Self</a> by <a href="http://www.joethorn.net/">Joe Thorn</a>}</span><br /></blockquote><br />I can't wait to read the whole book! Now just need to quite blogger during peak reading hours so I can accomplish my ever growing reading list. It is becoming a very daunting list!Misha Segerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15453405656872970118noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8567350051483202641.post-26183861725292918602011-04-11T06:00:00.003-05:002011-04-11T16:27:09.513-05:00Chicken 'n Black Bean soupTHE BOOOOOOOMB!

If this kinda flavor is up your alley, make it soon! I had dinner ready at 8:27am... that is some sort of personal record for me.<br /><br />So exercise trust and just do it.<br /><a href="http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-detail.asp?recipe=571481"><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Kickin' Chicken and Black Bean Soup</span></a> (<span style="font-size:85%;">found it @ Spark Recipes</span>)<br />1 16oz jar of salsa verde<br />1 can diced tomato<br />1 can corn<br />2 cans of black beans<br />5 frozen chicken breasts<br />1 tsp cumin<br />1 3oz pkg of cream cheese (trust me people..)<br /><br />Basically, dump all the green salsa and canned goods (juices included) into the crock pot with the frozen chicken breasts and cook on low for 6 or 8 or 10 hours.. depending on how old or "slow" your cooker really is. See, mine is not so slow... so I have to do more like 6 hours. Anyway, once the time is up... turn the crock pot to the "warm" setting and add the cream cheese, stir every so often until its all melted and combined. Usually while I am letting the cream cheese melt I take out the chicken and dice it up. Takes like, 5 minutes!<br /><br />Oh my goodness. It is yummy. Davin scarfs it down. Like, he doesn't even breathe. His little nose even runs a little bit because it has a little kick to it. You can eat it plain or with some cheese on top.. my fav is shredded colby jack, but that's just me.<br /><br />Some friends had us over a while ago and she made a version of chicken and black bean soup and served those "hint of lime" tortilla chips. Umm?? Hello??? <span style="font-weight: bold;">YUM</span>!!<br /><br />Enjoy. It is so super easy and it makes a lot!Misha Segerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15453405656872970118noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8567350051483202641.post-14231880118839399532011-04-09T15:11:00.000-05:002011-04-09T15:11:00.748-05:00eat before you go!word to the wise...<br /><br />..if ones go to the store hungry, one <span style="font-style: italic;">may </span>walk out with:<br /><ul><li>apple jacks</li><li>pizza flavored gold fish</li><li>munster cheese</li><li>and macaroni &amp; cheese</li></ul>Basically, all the things you haven't had in years!

I have a lot of favorite moments of the day, which I guess is a good thing, but <span style="font-style: italic;">this particular</span> <span style="font-style: italic;">moment</span> is just wonderfully wonderful. It is the moment right after I lay the babe down for bed and I scurry across the hall into the closet to pull a few of my hubby's clothes off their hangers. Pulling them off the hangers isn't my favorite moment, it is when I take the OVERsized long-sleeved shirt from his high days and put it on like its mine. It is perfectly huge on me. Nearly to my knees, finger tips barely hang out past the cuffs. Absolute comfort. Simply one of the places I feel so free! I can curl up into the smallest of balls, sprawl out into the largest of human pancakes, bend-twist-jump-stretch.. all without the worries of adjusting my shirt or the cares of post baby flab. Its <span style="font-style: italic;">WONDERFUL</span>.<br /><br />Prancing down the stairs with a satisfied smile is usually how I come, with a flirty attitude because I just <span style="font-style: italic;">know </span>I'll get that side glance, followed by the inevitable chuckle and side smile combo from my hub.<br /><br />He knows his shirts belong on me .<br /><br />So here I sit, one big puddle of comfort, in my husband's old Abercrombie shirt. Abercrombie was so popular in high school. With its age and wear and tear it has become the best lounge shirt. I would highly recommend you go raid your husband's side of the closet... it'll feel <span style="font-style: italic;">so </span>good :)Misha Segerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15453405656872970118noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8567350051483202641.post-25131254885326144532011-03-20T08:00:00.001-05:002011-03-20T14:28:36.986-05:00Giggle postHA!
